Post your scores. I got a 96%. Missed 2 of them–the Kaiser and the Willis. Give it a shot.
George
83%. None of them were cars I ever owned. lol
Jerry
83%, but I owned a couple of them so I had an advantage.
REE
79%. All of these cars were built before I was born, so I’m pretty happy with a 79. Decades after high school and I’m still a “C” student.
75% which was pretty good guessing.
The Chronicler
100%, Man I’m old!!
92% We owned 3 or 4 of the Chevys and the Buick Roadmaster. That helped a little. I’ve always been a GM fan.
75%
My first car was a '49 Pontiac Chieftain rag-top. 4 speed hydro w/flathead 8. Battleship Gray 2 door, red leather seats.
It came with instructions from the previous owner and a 10 cent piece to adjust the point gap in the distributor. Ah, those were the days! I quit lookin’ under the hoods about 20 years ago.
The car cost me $50 bucks.
Yea I got a 73%. The lowest score so far. These were cars from my time frame. Must be suffering from oldtimers LOL
I got 100%, but I’m not as old as Jack. I remember my Dad buying a couple of Kaisers when I was a kid. I remember you opened the doors with a button on the inside that I could not operate, I didn’t like that feature which was stylish at the time.
You’ve probably been in the back seat of most of those cars Jack.
Jerry
88%. I hang my head in shame. Shoulda known at least three that I missed.
Jerry,
Back seat? Those cars had big roomy front seats. No need to climb in back. Thank goodness for front bench seats and three on the tree (or an automatic), much better than buckets and four on the floor.
Remember going to a drive in movie and not seeing the movie?
REE
George,
I also got 73%, but that’s due to a couple of things…
- I ain’t as old as you & Jack :shock:
- I liked the LADIES!!
Mikey
85 % and I hide my head in shame. Shoulda knowed all of em.
Mark
PS: Owned ONE of those shown, the 57 Chevy which my girlfriend and now my wife put to sleep against a wall after jumping a curb. She was 17 and NO drivers license. I was away playing hockey and she wanted to show her friend what I had taught her … ( I know, I should probably clarify that)
Mark
81% for me. Oh well.
Larry —sagefisher—
50% - Should have quit after the first pic! Knew a few of the Fords, and decided that any thing big was a Cadillac! What did I win??? LOL!!
Best regards, Dave S.
83% not too bad considering my first car was a 1979 Merc Cougar XR7 and I didn’t buy it till 1986. Thanks for the post, I love old cars.
79% missed a few, got them mixed for sure. And i owned a car shop.
No wonder I nearly failed shop class. I was right around 50%. 8T
